Question
Based on the orientation of the roof sections,
give the order of roof sections receiving the
highest annual insolation to lowest annual
insolation per square metre. You should not
make any insolation calculations here but
logically justify your answer very briefly.
The latitude is 26.5 degrees South. The tilt
angle of the roof is 22 degrees. The building
azimuth angle is between 45 and 60 degrees
to the East. The altitude angle at the top of
the building is 45 degrees.
